GetParameterValueByName broken in 0.8?

Hi all,

I am extracting the Level parameter value from a bunch of rooms, and the resulting list is a mixture of the level names and the level as element.

Please see screen shot.

Dynamo 0.75 would produce a consistent list of levels ID numbers (as strings).

Is this a bug?

Thank youGetValueParameterByName_Broken

It’s a known bug: https://github.com/DynamoDS/Dynamo/issues/4310

you could try the get parameter as string node in Rhythm package in the meantime.

Luke- Thanks for mentioning Rhythm.

 

Unfortunately it appears my node has similar issues. So I went ahead and built a new one specifically for getting an element’s level name as string. Adding it to the package manager now. (Two examples below with rooms and doors)
